FAQs

What occasions is the Roman Velvet Pleated Midi Skirt suitable for?

This skirt is highly versatile, perfect for both casual outings when paired with knitwear and boots, and dressier events when styled with elegant tops and heels.

How do I ensure the pleats stay sharp?

To maintain sharp pleats, avoid scrunching the skirt when stored. Hang it neatly in your wardrobe. If pleats flatten, a gentle steam or very low-heat ironing on the reverse with a cloth can restore them.

Is the velvet delicate?

While velvet has a luxurious feel, this skirt is 100% Polyester and machine washable, making it relatively durable. However, care should still be taken to prevent crushing the nap or pulling threads.

How should I store this skirt?

It is best to store the skirt on a hanger to preserve the pleats and prevent the velvet from getting crushed. Avoid folding it tightly for extended periods.

Can I wear this skirt in warmer weather?

The velvet texture and polyester material make it more suitable for cooler temperatures or transitional seasons. For warmer weather, lighter fabrics might be more comfortable.

What is the approximate length of the skirt?

The length is approximately 79cm (about 31 inches), which is a midi length, typically falling between the knee and ankle depending on your height.

Troubleshooting

Pleats appear flattened or wrinkled.

Gently steam the skirt from a distance, or iron on the reverse side using a very low heat setting and a protective pressing cloth.

Velvet nap looks crushed or uneven.

Lightly brush the velvet in one direction with a soft brush or steam gently from a safe distance to lift the fibers.

Skirt feels too tight or too loose.

Confirm your size against the Roman brand's official size chart. The skirt is described as true to size, but individual fit preferences may vary.

Color appears dull after washing.

Ensure you are washing on a cool/delicate cycle with similar colors and avoiding harsh detergents. Air drying can also help preserve fabric vibrancy.

This skirt requires minimal 'setup' as it features an elasticated waistband for easy pull-on styling. It is designed for a regular fit and is true to size, so selecting your usual UK size is recommended. For care, the skirt is machine washable. Always use a cool or delicate cycle to protect the velvet texture and pleats. It's best to wash with similar colors. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach. To maintain the pleats and velvet finish, avoid high heat drying. We recommend air drying flat or hanging to dry naturally. If ironing is necessary, use a very low heat setting and iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth, or use a steamer from a distance to gently refresh the pleats and velvet nap. Store on a hanger to prevent pleats from flattening and velvet from crushing.
